Violetta
A musically-talented teenager returns to her native Buenos Aires after living in Europe.
Used in Rioplatense Spanish as a warm, childlike nickname for one's father. It signals closeness and affection rather than a neutral label.
'Flor de' is an intensifier in Rioplatense Spanish that means 'one hell of a' or 'a real/serious'. 'Flor de lío' therefore means a significant mess or trouble, not literally a 'flower of a problem'. The intensifier can combine with many nouns.
Literally 'climber' (a vine). Applied to a person, it is always derogatory, implying ambition achieved through manipulation rather than merit.
Used to tell someone to stop being arrogant or to stop acting as though they are better than everyone else. The image of being on a horse conveys the sense of looking down on others.
Mild and often affectionate in tone. It implies someone is easily fooled or not very sharp, but is not a strong insult. Often used between people who know each other well.
An interjection used to silence someone quickly, equivalent to 'shush' or 'quiet'. More informal and abrupt than 'silencio'.
